New Closet Staple - Plaid Flannel Shirt

Do you like my new header??? It's back to school season so I'm going to be posting lots of school appropriate outfits!

Remember how I said I was going to mix prints and patterns in my outfits more? Here we go!

Plaid seems to be all the rage right now! I think every store stocks at least 5 kinds of plaid! But what I love about this shirt is that it's flannel!!! So comfy, just a tad thick for the end of summer though. This shirt is the perfect throw-on shirt with jeans shorts for my lazy days.

And the glasses are a new purchase! Makes me feel very surreptitious walking around in these huge, oversized frames. I treat my sunglasses poorly, I never bother to put them in a case, so it won't be long before there are scratches.

I'm wearing this flannel shirt from Forever 21, vintage shorts from my aunt's closet, HUE lace knee highs, Target sunglasses, kukui nut necklaces from Hawaii, vintage purse, and these lace up booties from Forever 21.

I'm getting back to everyone's comments right now!!!

  7. Yeah...my jumping pics are taken with the self timer! The ratio is like 100:1 badly timed ones to good ones respectively. It's fun, though!

    Ahhhh...I can't get enough of your cute outfit in the header...it actually makes me want to go to school! Weird, huh?

  18. Re:

    The pants are a bit stretchy, perfect in my opinion - and really comfortable. I think they are even better than the real thing, as I both prefer and like the faux version better :)
